Tom Morello Leading the Charge of Musicians Supporting Wisconsin Protestors

Spinner reports that former Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave guitarist Tom Morello — as The Nightwatchman – headlined the “Rally for Wisconsin’s Workers” concert in Madison today in support of those protesting the challenge to their collective bargaining rights.

Morello spoke with the Huffington Post: “I really think that the future of the rights of working people in this country is not going to be decided in the courts. It’s not going to be decided in Congress or radio talk shows. The future of rights of working people in this country will be the fight on the streets of Madison, Wisconsin.”
